When I arrived at Kanazawa Station before seven o'clock, Honda was already in the waiting room.Honda seemed to be looking forward to Zhenzi's arrival, stood up from the chair, and walked towards Zhenzi with a smile. "I'm really sorry, I'll be back soon, and I'm sorry to ask you to see me off." Honda's expression was very happy. "Please come back early." "I don't have any important work tomorrow, I have a meeting the day after tomorrow, and I can come back in another day." Zhenzi wrenched her fingers in her heart. "On the day I arrived in Tokyo, as I said just now, if I don't have any work, I will find time to find the whereabouts of Hisako Tanuma."

Honda had a serious expression on his face.Sadako still has doubts at this moment, what method will Honda use to find the whereabouts of Hisako Tanuma?But what Honda said did not seem to be casual. At this moment, Honda walked up to Sadako and said in a low voice: "About Tanuma Hisako, I went to the district office where she came from." "Ugh? What are you asking?" "Simply put, according to the resume, my husband, Masaburo Sone, died in 1958. I went to the district office to confirm the date of his death in 1958." Why implement these things?Zhenzi didn't understand.

Honda went on to say: "I checked there and found that Masaburo Sone was the unofficial husband of Hisako Tanuma. As stated in her resume, she is dead. But..." Honda said in a strangely serious tone: "Death is true, but the cause of death is not illness." "Not sick?" "Yes, it is written on the resume that he died, which is true, but we generally think that death is death from illness. But the reply from the district office said that Masaburo Sone committed suicide." "Suicide?" Zhenzi widened his eyes. "It is said that this person was mentally prepared to commit suicide and left a suicide note. The police also confirmed that it was a suicide, and everything had proper procedures."

"Then why did he commit suicide?" "It's still unclear. If I have time, I will go to the local area to investigate today. It just so happened that the head office came to order a business trip. I think the suicide of Tanuma Hisako's husband seems to be a major clue." After hearing this, Zhenzi felt the same way. Time is up.Honda walked to the platform, and Sadako followed behind him.The train is coming from Fubin. "Then, goodbye." Honda said standing in front of the second-class car: "I just said that I will come back in three days, and by then, I will know more about Hisako Tanuma." In Honda's words, he was confident in finding Hisako Tanuma's whereabouts. "As soon as I come back, I will go all out to investigate this case. Until then, you can relax and wait for my return."

The start ready bell rang.Honda remembered something, and ran back again.He said: "There is one more important thing I forgot. The date of Masaburo Sone's death was in 1958, that is, December 12 this year." Before Zhenzi realized what December 12, 1958 meant, Honda's foot was already on the door of the car.There are still a few minutes before departure. "It is written in the resume that Tanuma Hisahi worked for Toyo Shoji in Tokyo from 1947 to 1951. I plan to visit Toyo Shoji first." Makes sense.Sadako originally wondered what method Honda would use to find the whereabouts of Hisako Tanuma in such a big Tokyo.And Honda planned to find it from the unit where Hisako Tanuma had worked for five years as written in the bureau letter.

"Of course, the resume only says Toyo Shoji Company, but it doesn't mention where it is in Tokyo. Anyway, when I go to Tokyo, I can check the phone book." The starting bell rang.Ben Duo waved his hand, and the train headed towards Tokyo.Honda poked his head out of the car window.Not long after, the train turned a corner, and the red taillights became smaller and smaller. The people who saw him off all dispersed, and Zhenzi stood there looking towards the dim line.Red and blue signal lights flickered on and off in the dark.Zhenzi recalled a scene like this before, seeing her husband Kenichi off at Ueno Station.

Zhenzi walked out of the station, and there was a cold wind outside.Not a single star in the sky.The lights on the shopping street in front of the station seemed to be frozen.The wind hurts my face.Only then did Zhenzi appreciate the coldness of the northern country. Zhenzi got up in the morning and saw that it was snowing outside.The waitress brought the stove and said: "It snowed a lot this morning." Zhenzi looked out the window. The forest slopes around the "Kenrokuen" area of ​​Kanazawa Castle, which he walked through yesterday, were covered with silver, and snow iron hit the windows, and the windows were covered with water vapor.

"It will snow today." Zhenzi said looking out the window. "No, not necessarily. From now on, this place will be closed by heavy snow, and a snowplow will be hung in front of the train." The waitress said while serving breakfast. After breakfast, Zhenzi packed up and prepared to go out. "Hey, you still want to go out in this weather?" the waitress asked with her eyes wide open. "Well, I'll go out for a while." "Where are you going? To the city?" "No, go to Noto." "Can you do it?" The waitress was surprised again.

"That's amazing, the snow is falling even more over there." "yes?" "Well, the snow in Noto must be thicker than here, but there is not much snow along the coast." "Where I'm going is the coast." Zhenzi smiled. "Which coast is it?" "West Coast." "It's windy on the west coast, so there's not much snow. But it's cold. Sadako boarded the train bound for Wajima from Kanazawa Station at 10:15.This line has been ridden before.She remembered that the last time it took about an hour to get to Yuzai Station, the young people sitting in the opposite seat were only talking about movies.Today, there are two parliamentarians, who are constantly talking about the village budget, both wearing black woolen coats.Some of the women had blankets wrapped around their backs like in the Meiji era.It's really winter in the Northland.

Looking out from the car window, I was worried that it would snow heavily, but it wasn't heavy.The sky was gloomy.Only the mountains in the distance are covered with snow.It takes about an hour to get off at Yuzai and change to a small tram to Gaohong.From time to time, the cold and windy scenery of the Sea of ​​Japan can be seen in the car window.When he arrived at Gaohong, the old and outdated scene appeared in front of Zhenzi.There is not much snow here, only a little snow on the thatched roofs in the inner street. Zhenzi walked to Gaohong Town Hall.The town hall is located at the crossroads where you turn slightly inward.She was standing at the window with the sign of "Household Registration Unit". A thin male clerk in his forties was writing something in the thick account book.

"Interview..." Zhenzi greeted, and the clerk opened the small glass window. "I would like to inquire about the household registration of Tanuma Hisaya of Tingmoyoshi Village, Gaohong." Seeing that he was not an acquaintance, the clerk gave Zhenzi a rare look, then stood up, and took out a thick account book from the shelf. "Is it Hisako Tanuma?" The clerk asked the house number and looked through the account books. "this one." It was written in the family register that Hisako was the eldest daughter of Shotaro Tanuma, which was the same as what was written in the resume.Shotaro Tanuma, Hisako's mother and brother all died.In other words, all of the Tanuma family were extinct except for Hisako. Sone Masaburo, whom Zhenzi wanted to know, was not registered in the household registration.That is a matter of course, because Masaburo Sone is the unmarried husband of Hisako and has no naturalization. So, how can we find Masaburo Sone?Zhenzi asked the clerk.An elderly local clerk knew about Hisako's home. "The unmarried husband has received a death notice." The clerk pulled out another ledger, looked it up and said, "Date of death is December 12, 1958." After all, he glanced at Zhenzi's face. "There should be a death certificate, right?" "Of course. The district office won't issue a burial permit without it." "What's the name of the disease?" "Disease name." The clerk stared at Zhenzi's face. "Excuse me, what's your relationship with Numa?" Such a question is inevitable, and Zhenzi has long been mentally prepared. "Tanuma and I are friends, and I want to know something about her personally." It sounded like he was introducing someone to Tanuma.The clerk honestly believed what Sadako said. "What the doctor issued is not so much a death certificate as an autopsy report, because Masaburo Sone didn't die of illness." "Didn't he die of illness?" Zhenzi pretended to be surprised and asked: "Not dying of illness, what do you mean?" "It was suicide," said the clerk. "Ah—" Zhenzi shouted.This Honda has already said that Zhenzi wants to know more details. "Why did he commit suicide?" The clerk moved his chair, approached Zhenzi, bowed his waist and said in a low voice: "We don't know the exact circumstances. According to the autopsy report, Masaburo Sone's body was found on the morning of December 13. He was killed by throwing himself from a cliff off the Ushiyama coast and hitting the head." "Where is Niushan?" Zhenzi asked out of breath. "Nusan is on the coast four kilometers north of here, and there is a very high new cliff there. By the way, you know Hae Kumgang in North Korea, right?" "I've heard the name, it's a very high cliff." "Yes. It's exactly the same as Hai Kongo, so it's named Noto King Kong. Anyone who jumps off this cliff dies immediately, without exception. Sone Masaburo committed suicide by throwing himself from that cliff. Nearby fishermen died in ten At 10 a.m. on the 3rd, the body was found and the police were called.” Zhenzi's lips turned white. "Where is the autopsy certificate issued by the doctor?" "That's Dr. Xishan from Gao Hong here. Everyone knows about Xishan Hospital." Zhenzi wrote it down in a notepad. "Do you know the reason why Sone Masaburo committed suicide?" "·I don't know about this." The clerk shook his head. "Everyone has their own situation. I heard some rumors, but I don't know if it's true. Anyway, I left a suicide note. You can talk to Dr. Xishan, maybe you can learn more about the situation." "Finally, let me ask again, does Masaburo Sone have a household registration?" ""No, because it is an informal marriage, there is no naturalization.We asked Hisako, but she didn't know where Sone was originally from.There was no other way but to find out the place of origin and then report. First, a burial permit was issued. " "I will find out the place of origin in the future... what's going on?" "It's just to report after the origin is found out." "And what if it can't be found?" "If you can't find it, it can only be treated as a pending document. But the human soul will always have a home in the end, so there is no need to worry about it." "Thank you." Zhenzi bowed his head and saluted. After the ceremony, she walked out of the town hall, a gust of cold wind blowing on her face. As he walked, Zhenzi's mind was confused.Masaburo Sone committed suicide by jumping off a cliff on December 12.Zhenzi's ears seemed to hear a loud noise.She remembered the expression on Honda's face when he talked about Masaburo Sone's death. The Nishiyama Hospital has a small facade, and as soon as you enter the door, there is a waiting room covered with tatami mats.A mother with a child in her arms squatted coldly beside the brazier, and a 17-year-old, rustic nurse sat in the small window of the registration office. "Is sir at home?" Zhenzi asked. "Are you a patient?" Suspend asked. "No, I have something to ask him." The nurse with flushed cheeks ran in, and came out at once, saying: "Please!" Sadako entered the consultation room.A balding, round-faced doctor sat reading by the fire. "excuse me." Zhenzi walked over respectfully.For the doctor, it was an unexpected guest.Seeing Zhenzi, he couldn't help but retract his feet and straighten his sitting posture. "I'm sorry for the sudden visit..." Sadako saluted him "I would like to ask about the husband of Hisako Tanuma who committed suicide on December 12th. " "Oh, is that so?" The doctor pointed to the chair in front of him. "Please sit down, what is it?" The doctor's eyes showed a curious expression.The doctor seemed to have never received guests from the city like Sadako.Zhenzi bowed slightly and said: "I'm a friend of Hisako Tanuma, and I want to know something about Hisako Tanuma." "Oh?" The doctor nodded. "Tian Zhi's husband committed suicide. Did you examine his body?" "Yes." The doctor replied. "I want to ask about suicide." Sadako made a request.Unexpectedly, the doctor answered frankly: "This matter is really worthy of sympathy. The police station called and told me to go there immediately in a police jeep. I am the agent of the forensic doctor in this area. I went to the scene in a police car on the morning of the 13th, and it was past twelve o'clock when I arrived," the doctor said. Speaking of which, he pulled out a folder from the back shelf and found a piece of paper. "Here is the test report." The doctor held a piece of paper that looked like a medical record, and said while reading it: "When I saw it, as I said just now, it was past twelve o'clock, and about thirteen or fourteen hours had passed since his death. Therefore, the time of death was between ten o'clock and eleven o'clock the night before." Zhenzi took notes and pictured a person standing on a cliff in the middle of the night. "The fatal injury was a contusion to the head. He hit a rock corner when he fell, his skull was broken, and his entire head was in a crushed state. He died immediately." The doctor said with gestures: "People often commit suicide on that cliff. There have been three cases in the past two or three years, all of which died of broken heads. The one named Sone was also in the same state and died immediately." "Has the body been dissected?" "No, there was no autopsy because it was clearly a suicide." "How do you know it's suicide?" "He left a suicide note. I was determined to commit suicide. On the cliff, I placed my leather shoes and a notepad, with the suicide note in it, and put it next to the leather shoes. You can tell that you are planning to commit suicide at a glance." "In that case..." Zhenzi swallowed. "Sir, have you seen the contents of the suicide note?" "This is not a doctor's job. I don't know if I should say it. I read the suicide note." "If there is no inconvenience, please tell me, can you?" The doctor hesitated, then said in a low voice: "I saw this suicide note in front of the police, and Masaburo Sone's suicide note was written to his wife Hisako Tanuma. The main idea is to think about it, but I feel that it is very difficult to live. I don’t want to tell you the details. In short, I disappeared from this world forever with boredom.The general content is as above. " Zhenzi read the letter over and over in her mind. —Holding boredom, he disappeared from this world forever. --What does it mean?As a suicide note, the content is very vague.No obvious reason was given, but the true meaning was conveyed to the other party. The doctor went on to say: "Immediately notified his wife, Hisako Tanuma, to come and identify the body. Hisako confirmed that the body was his husband himself, and the situation was suicide, so he claimed it without saying a word." "Did Hisako see no signs of her husband's suicide beforehand?" Sadako said, staring at the doctor. "Hisako said that she was not mentally prepared for Sone's suicide. However, since I have left a suicide note, even if there is no sign of suicide, there is always a reason why it is inconvenient to tell a third party. Ask the police, maybe they will I got an answer. From what I saw, Hisako didn't seem to have any deep doubts about her husband's suicide, and she took it calmly." "Were the clothes on the corpse in a mess?" "No, it's not messy. I'm neatly dressed, my jacket is still buttoned up, and I'm wearing a tie. What impresses me most is the word 'Sone' embroidered on the inside of the jacket, and a small boat insect." The word 'Sone' was embroidered in the victim's suit clip. ——When Zhenzi heard this, a scene flashed in his mind: The figure of the deceased uncle Sotaro Uhara visiting the dyeing shops in the whole city of Kanazawa. "You just said that you did leave your own notepad on the cliff, didn't you?" "Yes, the notepad is next to the leather shoes with the suicide note in it." "Is there anything related to suicide recorded in the notebook?" "No. The police officer took a look and remembered what Sone had memorized. It seems that it has nothing to do with suicide." "How did you deal with the notepad?" Zhenzi asked. "Of course he left it to his wife." Zhenzi has nothing more to ask.She thanked the doctor and left Xishan Hospital. Zhenzi's mind was in a mess.To sort out the clues, further implementation is needed.She decided to go and see the home of Hisako Tanuma. Muji Village, Gaohan Township, about two kilometers north of Gaohuo, is a desolate village that is half farming, half fishing.Walking along the street, the snow-covered Noto Mountains are behind you.Sadako inquired about a small cigarette shop, and immediately knew the home of Hisako Tanuma.Going forward along the street, turning east, is a small village.Hisako Tanuma's house is at the end of the village. "what" Zhenzi stood in front of Jiuzi's house and couldn't help shouting.She doubted her eyes.The house had indeed been seen before, and it was now unfolding realistically before her eyes.The same house, the same view has been seen in the photos.It was the original version sandwiched between her husband Kenichi Uhara.One of two photos in the book.From the roof, doorway, and windows, every detail is exactly the same as in the photo.Only then did Zhenzi solve the mystery of the photo. Kenichi Uhara has two photos.One is the house of Manager Murota, and the other is the house of Hisako Tanuma.Manager Murota's residence, because he was particularly appreciated by the manager, he often came in and out of his house, and took a photo as a souvenir.As for Hisako Tanuma's home, taking a photo has another meaning.In other words, this is the "home" where Xianyi lives.This is Sadako's intuition.What I had been dreading for a while now finally became a reality. ——Husband Kenichi and Sone Masaburo are the same person, she finally figured it out. The weather was cold, and the snow powder hit Zhenzi's cheeks obliquely, as if touching the heat, her mind was burning. Sadako visits nearby neighbors to find out about Masaburo Sone.A middle-aged peasant woman said with interest: "Hisako is the only daughter of the Tanuma family. Her family used to be a farmer. Poorly, her parents both got tuberculosis and died, leaving her brother alone. By the way, around 1947, Hisako suddenly went to Tokyo That's because she didn't get along with her brother. She didn't know what to do in Tokyo, and she didn't write to her brother. The neighbors didn't know her situation. Five years ago, Hisako came back suddenly. At that time, she was wearing a beautiful suit, with It was a different person before. The neighbors also gossiped about her in Tokyo. Soon, Hisako took off her suit and followed the customs of the country. After her brother died, she guarded the family business and planted a little land. Life wasn't too good. Then—" Speaking of this, the housewife's eyes lit up: "A year and a half ago, Hisako suddenly brought a son-in-law here. But it was not a formal marriage, and of course there was no wedding. At first, Hisako kept it from us, but later he revealed that it was her husband. It was that Sone Masaburo. Sone Masuke Saburo seldom talks when he sees us, and always turns his face away and walks his way. Of course, there is a reason for the two of them getting together. From our point of view,...he is a person who doesn't like to talk. " "According to Hisako, Masaburo is from a certain company. He goes out early in the morning and doesn't come back until late at night. He always takes the last bus and doesn't come home until it's dark. Also, he goes to Tokyo ten days a month. On a business trip, don't come home. Hisako is quite proud of Masaburo's business trip to Tokyo.We have no idea what kind of business the escaped from. " Not only from this peasant woman, Zhenzi also heard such words from other middle-aged farmers and fishermen.As for the reasons for suicide, everyone said this: "Hisako likes Sone Masaburo very much. From our point of view, she loves him very much. But why did Masaburo commit suicide? It's not clear. Is it because he ran out of work and lost money? Of course Hisako will not treat us She said, why did Yisaburo commit suicide? She was already very sad, and it is inconvenient for us to ask. In a few days, she suddenly sold the land, packed up her house, and moved to Jinze. According to Hisako, she has decided work there.” Zhenzi put these words together and came to this conclusion.Masaburo Sone is not a worker of Murata Firebrick Company as Mr. Murota said, but a salesman of a certain company.Are the neighbors telling the truth, or is Mr. Muroda telling the truth?Sadako immediately had difficulty making a judgment.It may also be that Hisako told her neighbors that Sone Masaburo was a worker at the Murata Refractory Brick Factory, and that she lost her dignity, and she lied about being a salesman for a certain company. But Zhenzi always felt that the neighbor was telling the truth. Anyway, what Manager Murota said was a lie. If Sone Masaburo and Uhara Kenichi were the same person, they couldn't be workers at the Murata Firebrick Factory.What's more, the features and appearance of Masaburo Sone that the neighbors said are exactly like Kenichi Uhara, and Masaburo, who has been bragging to his neighbors for a long time, spends 20 days in Kanazawa and goes to Tokyo for business trips in 10 days. This is completely Kenichi's life pattern. , Kenichi spent 20 days in Kanazawa recruiting advertisements for Company A, and returned to Tokyo in 10 days. Why did Manager Murota tell such a lie? Zhenzi remembered again that her husband Kenichi Uhara once compared himself with other women. At that time, his husband always praised his beauty.That tone is like comparing yourself with someone.At the time, she only thought it was just her own feelings.Knowing the actual truth at this moment shows that my intuition was not wrong at the time.But why did her husband Kenichi commit suicide? Anyway, Zhenzi wants to see the scene where her husband committed suicide.As soon as she inquired, it was still four kilometers away by bus.She came to the side of the road where it was snowing, waited for an hour with nothing to do, and took the bus for about 20 minutes.Looking out of the car window, the bus is driving on the cliff, and the sea stretches into the distance in the low place. Zhenzi got off at a station, and there was no one around.She stepped on the snow towards the cliff.The grass is dry and the clouds are just overhead.I remember the last time I was here, the sun shot down from the distant clouds, and the sea was so clear.Today, however, the entire sky is like a thick wall, with no sun or clouds moving. On which side is the place where the husband committed suicide?She didn't quite know, but it must be this area.Looking towards the sea, there are several rocks protruding from the sea.From an ornamental point of view, it is really "Noto King Kong".However, for Zhenzi, this place can only be the cemetery of the coast.The poem that echoed in her heart the last time she came, reappeared in her mind now.Look, there are clouds flying in the sky, and the sea is choppy.The tall tower gradually sank, as if smashing open the turbid sea.The pointed tower pierced the sky, and a crack appeared in the sky.The waves glowed red.Time passed in suffocation, in groans away from the world. — Cemeteries on the coast, graves in the sea. Zhenzi shed tears.Is that because of sadness?Or is it because of the biting cold wind blowing on the face and seeping into the eyes? She couldn't tell herself. Why should the husband die?Why commit suicide? Two years ago, when her husband went to this place to take up a post, he had a relationship with Hisako Taji, that's for sure.But from what motive, Sadako has no way of knowing.In short, my husband took office two years ago, and half a year later, he secretly came to this small coastal village to live with this woman.Zhenzi can roughly imagine the reason for her husband's suicide.Could it be that marrying Zhenzi as his wife contributed to his suicide?The husband loves Sadako, and also loves his other wife, Hisako.But he loves the newlywed Sadako more, and he tries hard to end the one and a half years of his life with Tian Zhi Hisako.However, he couldn't do it, and he was 100% distressed, so he committed suicide from this cliff. Sone Masaburo died on December 12.Her husband Kenichi Uhara disappeared on the night of December 11th. He said he was going back to Jinze, but his whereabouts have been unknown since then.The mystery of why Kenichi Uhara insisted on spending the night outside can now be solved.Kenichi left Kanazawa in the evening, came to Gao Nong, and spent the night at Hisako's house.There was no train to Kanazawa that night. Kenichi's original plan was to bid farewell to Hisako that night, return to Kanazawa the next day, and then return to Tokyo.However, that night, he committed suicide on this fault. Before taking the train to Tokyo, Honda had said that Masaburo Sone died on December 12th, and it seemed he had realized that Masaburo Sone and Kenichi Uhara were one and the same.people.Therefore, he said that he was going to Tokyo to look for Hisako Tanuma... The sea was covered with clouds, and the sea gradually darkened.Zhenzi stood there motionless facing the cold wind and snow. It was past nine o'clock in the evening when Zhenzi returned to Kanazawa.Back at the hotel, the waitress saw Zhenzi and hurriedly told her: "Someone called several times while you were away." "Oh, where did you call?" Zhenzi raised his face, guessing that it was from Tokyo's mother. "It's advertising company A. There seems to be something urgent. Since two hours ago, I have called three times." "Thank you." Zhenzi said. She was very upset. Advertising company A called, it was not about Xianyi, but about Honda.Maybe Honda found a big clue in Tokyo?However, if you really found a clue, you don't need to go through A advertising company, you can call the hotel directly.What is it?Zhenzi couldn't figure it out.At this time, Advertising Company A could not know about Xianyi either. Sadako called A advertising company.Her heart was beating violently.It was a man's voice that answered the phone. "Hi, hello, I'm Sadako Uhara." "Ah, it's Mrs. Uhara. I'm Kimura from Advertising Agency A." The other party's voice seemed flustered. "I'm out, I'm so sorry." "Ma'am, something has happened, I have to tell you right away, can I go to your place now?" The other party didn't talk about the general outline of the matter, which made Zhenzi feel that the matter was important. "Okay, I'm waiting for you." The phone hangs up.Before Kimura came, Zhenzi's heart could not calm down.It must not be Kenichi's fault, it must be Honda Yoshio's fault. Zhenzi ordered the waitress to turn up the fire on the stove, not knowing whether the visitor was one or two, and ordered the waitress to prepare three cushions. Thirty minutes later, the accountant came to report: Kimura from advertising company A and the local police officers had arrived.Upon hearing the police officer, Zhenzi held his breath, no doubt something serious happened.Zhenzi clutched her chest and heard footsteps coming up the stairs. "Excuse me." A man's voice came from outside the partition. "Come in!" Of course, the person who came in was someone Zhenzi had never seen before.One came in first, and the two behind were both wearing overcoats with one hand in their pocket.The man who came in first said: "I'm Kimura from Advertising Agency A." After exchanging pleasantries, Shi introduced the two middle-aged people beside him. "These two are detectives from the Kanazawa Police Department." "Since yesterday, the weather has turned cold." A criminal policeman said socially, took out a cigarette from his pocket, sat down calmly, and stared at Zhenzi with bone-like eyes.The waitress brought tea.After the waitress left, Kimura said: "Madam, to tell you the truth, something serious has happened." Zhenzi stared at Kimura, thinking, this matter is no small matter, once Kimura said it, it became a reality. "Honta-kun..." what!It's Honda's business, Zhenzi shouted in his heart. "You know that Honda-kun is on a business trip to Tokyo. At four o'clock this afternoon, the Kanazawa Police Department called, saying that Honda-kun had died suddenly. ""vomit? " Zhenzi's face changed. She expected that something might have happened to Honda, but she didn't expect that Mr. Honda would die.As soon as the two criminal policemen came in, she also thought hard about Honda's death.Her lips were pale. Kimura said excitedly: "His death is unfortunate, Honda-kun was killed." Zhenzi was so frightened that he couldn't make a sound.She has intuitions but cannot translate them into words.Her mind is in a vacuum. "The thing is like this..." The criminal police next to him took it and said: "Let me tell you the whole thing. This is a call from the Metropolitan Police Department. Mr. Honda died at around 12:00 today in a room in the Qingfengzhuang Apartment at XX Street XX Street, Setagaya District, Tokyo. Discovered by the apartment manager. According to the manager, this room was rented by a woman in her thirties named Sugino Yuko a few days ago.The next day, Mr. Honda went to visit.Mr. Honda asked the manager, did Tomoko Sugino move here?He asked the room number and went in. It was nine o'clock in the evening, and about three hours later, at nearly twelve o'clock, Mr. Honda's body was found in her room.The cause of death was potassium cyanide poisoning. There was a whiskey bottle next to the body, and it was confirmed by examination that potassium cyanide was mixed in the whiskey bottle.In other words, Mr. Honda died of poisoning after drinking this whiskey.The manager looked flustered when he saw that Tomoko Sugino went out after nine o'clock. " Zhenzi just stared at the policeman's face, not knowing what to say. "So..." the detective said, smoking a cigarette steadily: "I would like to ask my wife. Mr. Honda is on a business trip to Tokyo, of course. Mr. Honda's visit to Sugino is of course a private matter. You know Mr. Honda quite well, what do you think about it?"
